Rain does not mean a game or practice is cancelled. For games, coaches and referees must meet at the field to determine playing conditions before canceling.

Team travel is mostly local within the peninsula. Tournament travel varies by team. In most cases, teams in the U10 and below ages typically play league matches and attend tournaments within 25 miles. Older teams may choose to travel more extensively determined by competitive goals. Our top teams within the older age groups will travel as necessary to find the level of desired competition and showcase opportunities for next level play.
We believe in allowing our players, especially at the younger ages, to play multiple sports. Coaches acknowledge that playing multiple sports will build a more well-rounded athlete. This ultimately benefit the player in the long run. Older teams will expect a higher level of commitment and it may become more difficult to participate in multiple sports.
